Love, Rewritten – Prologue
The ink had barely dried on our divorce papers when I left town, vowing never to look back.
Lucas Montgomery had been my first love, my greatest mistake, and the one man I swore I’d never fall for again. We had built a life together, one that should have lasted forever. But forever had an expiration date, and ours came with broken promises, late-night fights, and the painful realization that love wasn’t always enough.
I spent years convincing myself I was over him. That I had moved on. That what we had was a closed chapter in a book I had no desire to reread. And I believed it—until the phone call came.
"You might want to sit down for this," my sister, Emma, had said, amusement laced in her voice. "I’m getting married."
I was happy for her. Truly. But then she dropped the second bombshell.
"To Andrew."
Andrew. Lucas’s best friend. The same best friend who had been the best man at our wedding.
Now, I had no choice but to return to the town I left behind. To stand in the same room as the man who once promised me forever—only to break every vow.
I told myself I could handle it. That I could face him without falling apart. That time had erased what we once were.
But when I saw Lucas again, standing across the room with those familiar stormy blue eyes and the same smirk that once made my heart race, I knew the truth.
Some love stories never truly end. They just wait to be rewritten.
